What matter if you Be stanch and true To the British blood in the veins of you, When it's "hip hurrah!" for a deed well done, For a fight well fought and a race well run-- What matter if you be true? Hats off to the Emden's crew! Theirs was the life of the storm-god's folk, Uncounted miles from the Fatherland, With a foe beneath every wisp of smoke, And a menace in every strip of strand. Up, glasses! Paul Jones was but one of these, Hull, Bainbridge, Decatur, their brothers, too! (Ha! those pirate nights In a ring of foes, When you douse your lights And drive home your blows!) Hats off to the Emden's crew! Erect on the wave-washed decks stood they And heard with a Viking's grim delight The whirr of the wings of death by day And the voice of death in their dreams by night! Under the sweep of the wings of death, By the blazing gun, in the tempest's breath, While a world of enemies strove and fumed, Remote, unaided, undaunted, doomed, They stood--is there any, friend or foe, Who will choke a cheer?--who can still but scoff? No, no, by the gods of valor, no! To the Emden's crew-- Hats off!
